Dorian sighed. It didn’t matter… yeah, the VP was right. Meredith always got on his nerves, but... it was his duty to the school and to the children to be the bigger person.
Well, let it never be said that Dorian Lost didn’t do his best. Maybe he should have stayed a superhero after all.
“Alright,” he sighed, and briskly walked over to the students.
“Well, what are you waiting for? You heard the VP, we’re going to the dormitories! Follow Vice President Smith!”He clapped his hands together, and started herding the students in the direction of the dorms. Christ, why was
he the one who always ended up doing the manual labor? He wasn’t even a proper teacher! He was a nurse!
This certainly hadn’t been in the job description.
“Your bags and personal belongings will be in the dorm rooms when you get there. You won’t have much time to settle in before we take you to the cafeteria, but we’d at least like to show you to your rooms, so hurry up!” he snapped.
As he directed the students towards the doors, he noticed an older looking girl hovering on the outskirts of the group. To be honest, she wasn’t very hard to notice— she was clearly the tallest person in the room. She looked uncomfortable: definitely a new student, then. After thinking about it for a few moments, he realized with a jolt where he had seen her face before.
Anastasia Tepes, the vampire halfling. She seemed to be staring rather intently at Aspen Archer and Kitty Lee— oh shit.
He had no how good her control actually was, and it
definitely wasn’t a good idea to just leave her to her own devices around the two injured girls while they weren’t sure. After all, she wouldn’t be the only vampire at Herculean Academy, and they’d had students get attacked by their vampire peers before.
As the other students filed towards the door, he tapped her on the shoulder. Okay, granted, he had to reach up a little –he was at the normal height for an adult male, and she really
was tall— but. Whatever.
“Excuse me,” he said.
“Anastasia Tepes, right? As I said earlier, I’m Dorian Lost, the school nurse here at Herculean Academy. I’d like to talk to you briefly about your, ah… circumstances, in private. Follow me. Don’t worry— we’ll catch up to your little friends later.”--------------------
They were going to see their rooms? And they were going to get their stuff? Kitty perked up, suddenly a whole lot more excited about the situation. Maybe they’d brought her DS. Man, she really, really hoped they’d brought her DS. She wasn’t sure whether she could
live without her DS.
Okay, maybe that was a bit of an exaggeration. She’d be able to live without her DS… but her existence sure wouldn’t be as fun! Plus, she was really hoping that she’d be able to play Pokemon with Alexis and Graham. Like, reeeeally hoping that she’d be able to.
As Mr. Dorian started to herd them towards the door, she obediently let herself get caught in the wave, looking around for her friends. Graham was getting to know the new guy, Scorpi-something, so instead she turned to Alexis—
Oh. Alexis had her earphones in. Well, okay, she probably didn’t want to be talked to. Cheol, then!
Cheol was younger than her, wasn’t he? He could use some, uh, guiding in his life! Right!
Never mind, of course, the fact that Kitty was probably one of the least mature people in this whole group.
Nevertheless, she fell into step with the younger boy, flashing him a grin.
“Soooooo~” she sang.
“What do you think, so far? This is pretty cool, huh? And they promised us food! I mean, isn’t it great?”The way to Kitty’s stomach was her heart, after all. Wait, no— the way to her heart was her stomach! Right, that was how it went.
Vaguely, she registered Mr. Dorian falling behind to talk to a really really tall girl (wow, that was
really tall! How had they not noticed this girl earlier?).
